Definitions

  • the object of the present invention is a progressive bidirectional safety device for elevators, also known as safety gear. This is, it relates to a system that allows braking against the elevator guiderails, both in an upward and downward direction.
  • the present invention is characterised by the elements comprising the safety system, which consists of a floating brake-shoe system plus an elastic element in combination with two rollers that move in an independent manner, so that when the engagement is engaged the brake-shoe will rest on the guide as flatly as possible, preventing the uneven wear of the guiderail, all of this due to the shape of the elastic element.
  • the safety system which consists of a floating brake-shoe system plus an elastic element in combination with two rollers that move in an independent manner, so that when the engagement is engaged the brake-shoe will rest on the guide as flatly as possible, preventing the uneven wear of the guiderail, all of this due to the shape of the elastic element.
  • the present invention is also characterised by the linkage system associated to the two rollers, which allows an independent action of the two rollers depending on whether the brake is applied when travelling in an upward or downward sense.
  • the present invention lies within the field of systems or means used for braking elevators against their guiderails, both in an upward and downward direction, known in the field as safety devices and safety gears.
  • Some prior safety devices of elevators are based on the use of two mobile brake-shoes or one fixed brake-shoe and a roller, or one fixed brake-shoe and two rollers that move simultaneously attached by one or more auxiliary parts.
  • safety devices are placed directly on the chassis or frame.
  • the safety device object of this invention is attached to the linkage system.
  • This linkage system is provided with a system that allows the sideways displacement of the safety device so that the roller entrance is smoother at the time of engagement.
  • the object of the present invention is to develop a progressive safety gear that overcomes the aforementioned drawbacks and allows bidirectional braking, both in an upward and downward direction, wherein said braking takes place such that the brake-shoe can adapt to the guiderail when resting on it in a perfectly flat manner, so that the mark left by the brake-shoe on the guiderails is as uniform as possible, due to its even distribution.
  • a further object is to allow the block to be smaller than the elastic elements and to be provided with means such that at the time of engaging the system the entrance of the roller is as smooth as possible.
  • the invention taught for a progressive bidirectional elevator safety allows to brake the car when the speed governor detects an overspeed situation.
  • the system comprises a main block, a linkage system mounted in connection with the main block and means for keeping the linkage system in its central or rest position.
  • the main block is in turn formed by means that when suitably actuated brake a guiderail that runs along the main block. On one side it is composed of a brake-shoe and elastic element assembly and on the other of a set of rollers that move independently, suitably actuated by the linkage system.
  • the brake-shoe used for the engagement is not attached rigidly to any other part, neither by screws nor by any other attachment means. In the resting position the brake-shoe is retained on the block by the wedge-like shape of the brake-shoe's lateral faces.
  • the brake-shoe is placed over the elastic element, which basically consists of two beams placed opposite one another with their ends resting on each other, separated by a certain length.
  • the brake-shoe presses on the central part of the elastic element the latter allows the brake-shoe to move somewhat so that it can rest properly on the guiderail of the elevator that will brake.
  • the elastic element controls the force that the safety gear must apply
  • this control can be achieved by a plate that can be canged in length, so that canges the separation of supports of back beam.
  • the force lever be changed by changing the thickness of the beams, which may be identical or different. It is also possible to change the stiffness of the elastic element by changing the length of the beams since, as mentioned above, the block may be smaller than the elastic element.
  • the linkage system basically consists of a pullrod joined by a pin to a lever.
  • the lever has a link on which run the ends of rods which are in turn connected to the rollers, this last segment of the rods running through curved orifices made in intermediate pieces that mark the path to be followed by the rollers.
  • the means used to maintain the linkage system in its central or resting position comprise two parallel plates: an upper plate integrally attached to the main plate of the linkage; and a bottom plate that can swivel about both of its ends. Between these plates are placed some bushings. Some screws are placed passing through the two plates and the bushings placed between the plates. On the end of these screws are springs compressed by nuts.
  • Figure 1 represents a front view of the safety device (1) showing the presence of a guiderail (20) between a set of rollers (2) and (3), shown in their resting position, and engagement means consisting of a brake-shoe (4) in contact with an auxiliary piece (5) over an elastic element (10) formed by two parallel beams (6) and (7), separated a certain distance by meant of end supports (8).
  • the assembly of the elastic element (10) rests on the support (9) and this in turn rests on the main block (1) and is attached at its central part and free at its ends, so that it may be longer than the safety device block.
  • the roller (2) on the bottom part of the block is carried by the linkage (figure 2) upwards until the central part of the block, so that the roller engagementes the guiderail (20) against the brake-shoe (4).
  • Said brake-shoe is displaced, moving the auxiliary piece (5) which compresses the elastic element (10) constituted by pieces (6), (7) and (8).
  • the force exerted when compressing the elastic element presses the brake-shoe (4) against the guiderail (20) and the friction between the elements allows the car to slow down until it stops entirely.
  • the brake-shoe (4) is not attached rigidly to any other part, neither by screws, adhered nor by any other attachment means. In the resting position the brake-shoe is retained on the block by the wedge-like shape of the brake-shoe's lateral faces. It is also possible to retain the brake-shoe by using an auxiliary part or a stair-like design on the lateral part of the brake-shoe that carries out the same function as the wedge-like shape.
  • the elastic element basically consists of two beams placed opposite one another and with their ends resting on each other, separated by a certain length.
  • Figure 2 shows a front view of the assembly of the main block placed on the linkage.
  • the linkage consists of a lever (26) attached to a main plate (21).
  • a pullrod (38) Joined to this lever by a pin is a pullrod (38) provided with orifices (38.1), to which is joined the carle that acts on the pullrod and therefore pulls the lever (26).
  • the lever (26) has an arc-shaped link (26.1)inside which run independently some lugs that emerge from rods (27) and (28), which are joined on their other end to the rollers (2) and (3) (figure 1).
  • the emergent part of the rollers pass through slits (22.1) made in the intermediate part (22) of the linkage system.
  • the lever (26) is provided with a spring at its union to the pullrod (38) which allows to maintain the rollers (2) and (3) in their resting position in the safety device.
  • Acting on the pullrod (38) makes the lever (26) move, displacing one of the two rods (27) or (28) and thus one of the two rollers independently.
  • the assembly of the main block of the safety is supported by the main linkage plate, which is housed in two slits made in the block for its sideways motion, which acts as a centring system in the engagement process, its movement being limited on one side by stop wedges (40) and (41) and on the other by springs (42) and (43) attached to the main linkage plate.
  • Figure 3 shows the means used to maintain the linkage in its central or resting position, which are attached on the main plate (21).
  • the force applied by the springs (36) and (37) maintain the bottom plate (30) in a horizontal position in contact with the bushings (31) and (32).
  • the bottom plate is in contact with a main square shaft (25) that is joined at its end with the lever (26), so that when the lever turns by action of the pullrod (38) the main square shaft (25) is turned, so that the bottom plate (30) swivels about one of the sides to compress one of the springs (36) and (37), such that when the action on the pullrod (38) is no longer exerted and by the action of the springs (36) and (37) the plate, the main square shaft (25) and the lever (26) recover their original resting position.
  • Figure 4 which represents a cross section of the safety device object of the invention, shows that the main plate is housed in slits (45) and (46) made in the safety block (44).
  • Figures 5A and 5B show the manner in which the linkage assembly moves when the pullrod is actuated, representing a downward displacement of the lever (26), showing how initially the end of the link (26.1) meets the lug that emerges from the rod (28) to then carry it in its displacement inside the slit (22.1), thereby carrying with it the roller (3); it is also shown that the rod (27) is not displaced at all.
  • Figures 3 and 6 shows the complete mounted assembly. It is worth noting the main square shaft formed by the pieces (25), (26) and (27) that joins the two safety devices disposed on each of the main plates (21), only one of which is actuated, the action being transmitted by the assembly formed by the pieces (23), (24) and (25).
  • the main square shaft (25) is joined to the linkage system passing through the means that maintain the linkage in its central or resting position, while the other end of the main shaft is joined at its segment (23) to the other linkage and safety gear.
  • Figure 7A shows how the elastic element is formed by two beams (6) and (7), separated by a certain distance and supported at their ends by the end supports (8).
  • the end supports are eliminated and one of the beams, sheet (6), which receives the pressure directly from the brake-shoe, has a C-shaped configuration with stair-shaped ends that rest on the other ends of the sheet (7).
  • rollers As relates to the rollers, they may be replaced by moving brake-shoes (11) and (12) as shown in figure 8.
  • Figure 9 shows an alternative embodiment applicarle as a safety device for a single direction (downward), the functional characteristics of which are identical to those described above.
  • FIGS 10A and 10B show two alternative embodiments in which the elastic element is placed behind the rollers.
